Glenfiddich, awarded for its passion towards innovation, pushes the boundariesof convention further by launching Cocktails Reimagined– a selection of exotic cocktails with the finest ingredients painstakingly handpicked from diverse parts of India. Re-defining the rules of traditional cocktail making, the cocktails have been created with the Glenfiddich 12-, 15-, 18- and 21-year old single malt.

And last week, we were invited for this one of a kind tasting of these signature creations at Olive Beach. The 18 YO and 21 YO cocktail creations were demonstrated by Yangdup Lama – one of India’s best mixologists.

Premium Kashmiri Walnuts, sourced and handpicked from the heartlands of India complement the nuttiness of our 15-Year-Old Expression. The most premium bay leaf from Assam and exquisite cinnamon from Kerala combine to make a cordial that gives the World’s Most Awarded single malt, the Glenfiddich 12-Year-Old a rightful, full-bodied, spicy finish. The Gung Giri estate’s premium coffeegrown at an altitude of about 1100 meters adds to the fruit-forward notes of the Glenfiddich 12-Year-Old with its tangerine sweetness and intense aromas.

And the exquisite cocktails have been created with the finest of ingredients that have never been explored in creating a cocktail before. The Silver Tips Full-moon Tea that is plucked only on one full-moon night every year, just for a minute short of 3 hours beautifully enhances the peppery finish of the Glenfiddich 21-Year-Old. The Castleton Muscatel second flush, popularly known as the Champagne of Teas is a result of the finest Chinese saplings planted 125 years ago, and is the perfect element to enhance the sherry character of the Glenfiddich 18-Year-Old.
